Chapter 1538: Out of Control (Part 2)

After getting a triple-double in 4 consecutive games, and the 22nd triple-double of the season, Ji Feng once again put his name in the top ten of the consecutive triple-double list. Currently, almost all the top 20 names on the list have been taken by Ji Feng. , Chamberlain and Big O are occupied by monsters like this.

After the game, ESPN special commentator Miller said: "Maybe it won't be long before this list will be occupied by one name."

Indeed, Ji Feng's triple-double is rarely matched in this league today, and it won't be long before Kidd, the current triple-double king, will step down and make way for someone else. After all, Kidd's career spans nearly 18 years. He got more than 100 triple-doubles, and Ji Feng came close to this number in less than three seasons.

Of course, Kidd didn't care. On the contrary, he humorously expressed that he hoped Ji Feng would hurry up, because it felt really uncomfortable to be chased behind!

Wade had the same feeling as Kidd. Ji Feng not only scored a triple-double in this game, but also scored 32 points. This was also the fourth consecutive game that Ji Feng scored more than 30 points. This achievement is also amazing, at least in the league. He can do no more than two hands, and apart from Ji Feng, the only ones who have scored 30 points in 4 consecutive games this season are Lao Zhan and Wade.

It's just that because Ji Feng had 26 consecutive 30+ games last season, this topic was only mentioned in sporadic newspapers after the game. According to fans, isn't this Ji Feng's basic operation, and it is not surprising.

The reason why Wade is concerned is not because he thinks Ji Feng can't do it, but because after this game, Ji Feng's average points per game increased a little bit. Although it was only a little bit, this has made Wade like him. We are facing a formidable enemy.

Last season was a season in which Wade's scoring surged. He averaged 30.2 points per game, which was also the highest in his career. However, he was still overpowered by Ji Feng and missed out on his first season scoring title.

Therefore, although Wade is injured this season, he still plays 41 and a half points per game, just to once again challenge for the scoring title.

Some people may say that the scoring champion is not important, and we have to compete for the scoring champion for no reason.

But this is definitely what the fans think. As a player, although the scoring champion is only used for statistical reference, every player in the NBA regards this as a great honor in their career.

Among all statistics, the scoring leader is also the most valued, and scoring ability is an important indicator of whether a person can win honors such as regular season MVP. No matter which star he is, the scoring leader is also when it comes to honors. A very important indicator. After all, basketball games are all about scoring.

The game always depends on scores to determine the outcome, coupled with the relationship between visual effects, then among the five major technical statistics, the player who dominates the scoring list will naturally attract attention. During the long period of development of basketball, no matter the victory or defeat, the scoring champion was a high-quality resource that the team relied on. Chamberlain used countless high scores to influence the concept of several generations. At that time, "high scores are useless" However, it contributed to his tall and brave historical image; in the 1990s, Jordan undoubtedly became the master of "scoring king", winning, fans, market, box office, and brought the historical view of personal heroism to its peak.

And in the new century, whether it is Tracy McGrady, the two-time scoring champion, or Kobe Bryant, a scoring machine and a strong contender for the best scoring champion in history, it is hard to imagine what they would lose without the scoring champion.

So you can understand why Wade values ​​​​so much about winning a scoring title.

Especially now that the Heat's record is impressive, there is almost no hope of winning the championship, and it is impossible to compete for the regular season MVP. The scoring champion is the closest honor to Wade.

Seeing that he is the only one who averages more than 30 points per game on the scoring list this season, as the regular season comes to an end, his chances of being crowned the scoring champion are getting bigger and bigger. But at this time, Ji Feng suddenly emerges again. How can this happen? It can make him not feel anxious!

However, it is useless to be anxious. On the contrary, sometimes the more anxious you are, the less you will get what you want. The day after Ji Feng killed everyone, Wade's Heat suffered a defeat at the hands of the Celtics.

Although the loss was not much, only losing by 6 points 80-86, it was not unacceptable for the Heat. However, Wade only gained 21 points in 23 frontcourt shots. This is definitely not good news for Wade.

In contrast, Ji Feng did not stop.

After a day of rest, on March 1st, the Lakers played against the Nuggets away from home. It was the second time this season and it was still an away game. Everyone thought it would be a tough battle.

The first quarter was as everyone expected. The two sides played very stalemate in the first quarter. Although the Lakers formulated a detailed defensive strategy for Anthony, with both single defense and double attack, the Nuggets' defensive level was also not low. Anthony and Anthony Graham took turns to defend Ji Feng. After all, Ji Feng had just posted a consecutive 30+ triple-double. The Nuggets would not be as stubborn as the Magic.

It's impossible to play fast, so the Nuggets and the Lakers will grind out their positions round after round.

In the first quarter, they did it. The two sides scored an ultra-low score of 18-19, and Ji Feng only scored 4 points.

Seeing this scene, Wade was relieved and just about to open the champagne to celebrate.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, the situation on the court suddenly changed, and Ji Feng's three-pointer started!

Graham, who was defending Ji Feng in the first round, was still retreating. Ji Feng pulled up and hit a three-pointer. The latter looked confused. At this time, Ji Feng was still 1.5 meters away from the three-point line!

The Nuggets home fans were also dumbfounded. Why did he make such a shot? How dare he make such a shot? The most outrageous thing is that he still made the shot!

This three-pointer sounded the clarion call for the Lakers' crazy attack. The Cavaliers were the clarion call for Ji Feng's crazy attack. In the second round, Ji Feng's fast-break counterattack hit another three-pointer at the top of the arc. He turned over and grabbed the rebound to break through, and faked a real shot. , or a three-pointer...

Graham completely collapsed, took the initiative to foul and sent Ji Feng to the free throw line, and was subsequently replaced.

Although Anthony defended on the three-point line, he still could not stop Ji Feng's shooting. He made 6 of 7 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 22 points. Ji Feng scored 28 points in the half.

Wade angrily quit the live broadcast room...

Then the Nuggets launched a counterattack in the third quarter and recovered a 10-point deficit in a single quarter. In the last quarter, the two sides fought fiercely until the last moment, and ultimately lost 100-94.

But Ji Feng's total of 38 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds still made Wade cry and faint in the toilet when he saw the news.

With 30+ points in 5 consecutive games, the average points per game has reached 29.8 points, which is only 0.3 away from Wade's 30.1. Ji Feng puts Wade's scoring title in jeopardy.

On the 3rd, the Lakers faced the Eastern Conference playoff team Bobcats at home. In this game, the Lakers were in poor condition and kept fighting throughout the game. They eventually lost the game 96-99. This was also the Lakers' 8th loss this season.

However, the only bright spot for the Lakers came from Ji Feng. Ji Feng scored 41 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds, making his average score above 30 points for the first time!
